Typewriter Talk / Good New Tape Deck?

**Posted by LukeIsMe** 14-5-2018 18:05:46

Hello!
I was just wondering if anyone had heard of a decent quality, modern tape deck. I'd heard of many crappy, cheap decks being sold, but nothing of quality.
Most seem to use the same crappy plastic tape mech, a cheap thing that has terrible wow and flutter, and isn't even quartz locked.
I know they cant include Dolby, its copyrighted, but it would be nice.

If you guys have found one, please let me know!
Thanks!

Are we talking cassette or reel-to-reel?

Wouldn't a good quality vintage player be a better investment than anything new?

The only analogue media that I still spend money on is vinyl, and although there are many 'junk' turntables being manufactured now, there are still high-end manufacturers around. I can't see myself ever going back to cassettes, especially since the place I used them most often was the car.
